Question, how much math+science do I need to know, I know as of now Calculus and Calculus based Physics, but would I need to say grab a book on AC/DC circuits and analysis, anything like that?

I'm bumping this thread to ask the fine gentlemen of this thread, re, meltdowns, I know we don't have them, but apparently Japan is undergoing one, and can any of you explain what happened/how it happened/potentials to how it could be prevented etc? More or less your observations/knowledge on this sort of thing.

Harmburger posted:I'm wanting to join the nuke program, filling out the paperwork with my recuiter. He wants to enter me into the DEP program next Tuesday as some sort of non-nuke rate, I think one of the ET classifications. I've been clear with him that I want to ship out to boot with an Nuclear Field rating, and he said that I will. I understand that DEP is reversible and you haven't signed away your life(yet), and what really matters is on the enlistment contract you sign shortly before you go to boot. poo poo, I was advanced computers before I joined the pipeline, you will just be in dep forever though.

Mr. Doom-Baddy posted:Yeah, I already got the gist of all that. I'm just specifically sick of these specific fucktards. I know it has a hand in preparing you for all the fucktards the Navy has to offer you and since you can't choose the people who are in your command, you have to deal with it... but these fucktards... Its not that big a deal, don't dwell on it, deal with it etc, at least you are done and have a small break, to be honest, are you one of those pricks who manages to get everyone to hate him? I mean gently caress, nukes are friendly nerds, if a bit dumb on things.

KetTarma posted:At prototype, end of course critiques rarely resulted in anything. One of my friends had 5 classes in a row that all said he was one of the worst people they had met with people regularly saying that he got off on making people cry. The only thing that happened was the PMC calling him into his office to ask "Did you know that almost every student you've had hated you?" "Yeah, they're mad that I make them study" "Oh, well, try to be a little nicer so we stop getting these complaints." People weren't done by systems, I thought you were an oncrew guy? Also, what is the greatest sad story ever, you have to tell us.

We do that with grad holders, send em to kings bay because there is no loving room (also I would not be opposed to this, its hard enough to try to qualify and then field days and other dumb poo poo), but at least I'm 50% pretty soon. Gonna become the new KetTarma if I get sent to the yards.

I mean, I'm still pissed at how much happiness I lost, but at least it went to some mother fucker that gets to tell a cool story. I thought that was like one of the laws of nuclear physics, it is told here in prototype (god its over half over i want to qualify, my roomates want to quit, i just watch cartoons, work out and go to study,), and it seems universal.

Ok, so wrt prototype instructor. One instructor in our section goes on a date, then goes with college kids and gets very very drunk, drives the WRONG WAY on caroline street, and gets pulled over by the cops. He is so drunk he manages to get the local police to call the navy to get him out of drunk jail. Full penalties at mast (and the public stuff was in the local newspaper, Saratoga yay). Jesus christ what else can go wrong on 4 days? And gently caress you South Carolina people, 35 weeks?! gently caress you all I will be done at 23ish, how the gently caress can you not get poo poo done (did your plant explode) in 24 weeks?

Assuming you are phase 3, you'll go to PCU school with me for 2 months, then the quals start while system turnover goes on, is the plan, but I'm the ~fresh from prototype~ type.

We made him tell us about all the personal moments, him failing to hit on this female DILDO in his office, and how he went home, drank, stared at a wall a lot, and just played wow. jesus christ how horrifying. (Also lol white people lol), but yeah, man, let be on topic. For Prototype new guys, I'm the newset prototype qualed guy (now on the mighty PCU Gerald R Ford!), and yeah, the boat is key, mids guys love checkouts because no one is there and they do nothing, and during shutdown periods, for Electrical checkouts, SEO and AMR will love to give you checkouts inbetween their long roves/checkins.

JulianD posted:A while back, I came into this forum asking for information about the Navy's nuclear programs (NR Engineer, Instructor, etc.). I'd like to thank all of you for that information - as of yesterday afternoon, I was accepted as an instructor at the Navy's nuclear power school. I report for ODS 2 February and will likely be in the Charleston area by mid- to late March, so if any of you are going to be in the area, please let me know! It would be great to meet new people there who also know the area. I'm nervous because I've never lived anywhere but in my home state and near my family, but I'm excited for the opportunity and challenge. don't let the students gently caress with you (they will try) Also, go party in Charleston, it is fun, Eat at Hymens, what else is there to do?

Question, how long did it take most of you guys to qualify a watchstation. I am trying to figure out how abnormal this precom is (I have been here for half a year and I am about to qualify bnuke, and I'm not qualified any watch (but that is impossible soo)

Hobolicious posted:During PIA we had a lot of people take awhile to qualify, and fall behind, so it's not unheard of. But work on it. The faster you qualify, the easier your life will be. I can't qualify a watchstation though. My ship.. is still under construction, and the cards do not exist (yet). I was just trying to figure out how the hell long it would or should take me to qualify in a place where a ship's program exists.

Snowdens Secret posted:I thought the two new prototypes in SC were to replace the ancient MTS's. Are they going down to 2 total? That seems a bad idea. They are building fake steam plant trainers. As of now S8G will be refilled, MARF will die, a Steam Trainer will go to NY? and Charleston will get 2 688s, and 2 steam plant trainers. You'll still have to do nuclear watches, just less of them, since the goal is to RAM PEOPLE THROUGH. (Also I've been in for nearly 3 years, and I have 0 sea time, and will end up with 0 sea time before I get out. jesus 3 more years to go. god why did they extend me by 3 months?
